Willam Mueller

2×2 · top 7.6% of 186,767 all-time · competing since May 2022 · 2022MUEL01

Willam Mueller has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.36, set at Pretzel Mania 2022, puts him in the top 7.6% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,991st in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since May 2022, he has put 120 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 3.23 in May 2022 to 2.36, a 27% improvement. Willam has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 2×2. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

The story so far

Competitions

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
